The ASGS ensures that these statistics are comparable and geospatially integrated and provides users with a coherent set of standard regions so that they can access, visualise, analyse and understand statistics.The 2016 ASGS will be used for the 2016 Census of Population and Housing and progressively introduced into other ABS data collections. The ABS encourages the use of the ASGS by other organisations to improve the comparability and usefulness of statistics generally, and in analysis and visualisation of statistical and other data.The ABS Structures are a hierarchy of regions developed for the release of ABS statistical information. The main components are as follows:Statistical Areas Level 1Statistical Areas Level 2Statistical Areas Level 3Statistical Areas Level 4Regional Boundaries (Local Government Area, Suburb)The Australian Bureau of Statistics Geographical Standard Boundaries - Statistical Areas are used to define geographical areas to support statistical and socio-economic analysis at a state and regional scale. They are useful for analytical purposes within statistical boundaries through the aggregation of a wide swath of data and information.The ABS maintains the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) and the Australian Standard Geographical Classification (ASGC) for pre-2011 census information.In addition to the NSW Administrative Boundaries Theme Australian Bureau of Statistics also provides this data via a web service direct from ABS.Further standards, specifications and classifications can be found at:Australian Bureau of Statistics StandardsAustralian Bureau of Statistics ClassificationsThe regions defined in the ABS Structures will not change until the next Census in 2021.
